Relax - it's Wimbledon........
« on: June 29, 2016, 11:54:44 AM »

Well, this year, after all the shinannigins of last week, I'm tuning into Wimbledon as and whenever I can, and whenever I want to chill out.  At this early stage in the tournament, it's nice and relaxing and I'm finding the ping-pong of the tennis ball and the commentators' languid commentating really rather therapeutic. Pass me the strawberries, someone............. :)

I have my phone on my desk, plugged in to the charger, and one earphone in ... so I can watch/listen to Wimbledon and hear what's going on in the office!  This will be default setting for the duration!

I can remember three summers when I watched Wimbledon non stop and I could justify as I was pregnant and was told to rest!

Why do you need to justify it? Well I suppose you might have to to your boss, if you work, but if not, just say it's part of your self care programme!  ;)

Well you had summer while I was on holiday! As usual! It's rained everyday since I came home! And it rained in Maine while you were sunbathing here! Have I jinxed the weather?  ::)

Yep  ;D

It's Wimbledon - maybe it should be played in November?  It's on our TV - how lovely of the chap earlier to earn £K50 against Federer ………. if he never plays again he will remember that after-match hug for ever!

Hello ladies.

The story goes that during a particulary soggy tournament some American tourists turned to their English hosts and said ' Gee guys, why don't you have this in summer?'
